Agreement signed with A. Angiolino and P. G. Paglia to publish “Wings of Glory”

Ares Games announces an agreement with Andrea Angiolino and Pier Giorgio Paglia, the authors of the best selling game that recreates aerial combat during the WWI and WWII, formerly published with the name Wings of War.

Ares Games will publish the game under a new brand, Wings of Glory. Wings of Glory will be published with a new rulebook, while maintaining compatibility with the previous Wings of War products already in the market.

“We are happy to be partnering with Andrea and Pier Giorgio to bring this wonderful game system to market.” said Christoph Cianci, CEO of Ares Games, “Thousands of fans worldwide will be pleased to know that their planes and maneuver cards from Wings of War will be compatible with the new Wings of Glory.”

Initially, Ares Games will focus on developing new miniatures for the game, but also plans to release new starter sets.

“This game has a very strong and loyal fan base around the world, which gave and will surely continue to give a great help to the success of our game with their support and creativity. They have high expectations of it, in spite of several attempts to imitate it with other settings and chrome,” stated Andrea Angiolino, co-creator of the game. “We chose to partner with Ares Games because we believe they understand our game, and that they will take care of the wishes of its fans, as well as be respectful of its creators.”

The first Wings of Glory products to be released will be four airplanes for the WWII game series: the American P40, the Russian Yak-1, the Japanese Ki-61 and the Italian Re-2001 Falco. Ares Games will publish a Starter Set with these four models, containing the introductory rules and all other elements needed to start play. The complete schedule of the next releases will be announced soon.
